Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet'
The Captain Magenta in 2005 CGI remake series, Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet, is not the same character as the original Magenta. He is rarely seen in the series and very little background information has been supplied about the character. His name is Mario Moro, and his personality differs greatly from that of Patrick Donaghue. This Magenta is cast as something of a womaniser; however, he has little real success with women – including the female Captain Ochre. In another ironic twist, the new Magenta has been given an Italian nationality, but it is unknown if, like the original Patrick Donaghue, he has been also given an "underworld" background, however stereotyped this would appear.

Famous quotes containing the words anderson and/or captain:
“I am willing, for a money consideration, to test this physical strength, this nervous force, and muscular power with which I’ve been gifted, to show that they will bear a certain strain. If I break down, if my brain gives way under want of sleep, my heart ceases to respond to the calls made on my circulatory system, or the surcharged veins of my extremities burst—if, in short, I fall helpless, or it may be, dead on the track, then I lose my money.”
—Ada Anderson (1860–?)
“Adolescents have the right to be themselves. The fact that you were the belle of the ball, the captain of the lacrosse team, the president of your senior class, Phi Beta Kappa, or a political activist doesn’t mean that your teenager will be or should be the same....Likewise, the fact that you were a wallflower, uncoordinated, and a C student shouldn’t mean that you push your child to be everything you were not.”
—Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
